GIVING BIRTH IN THE NEW YEAR? Here’s my hospital birth bag checklist – what I prepped, packed (and actually used) for my second twin delivery
As your due date gets closer (we’re so excited for you, by the way!) you’ll probably find yourself in the stage of thinking through all the things you need to buy, borrow or organise for your upcoming birth, before the watching and waiting starts.
To make things a little easier, we sat down with TRB founder Eloise – mum of five, and recent second-time twin mum via c-section – to find out which essentials were in her hospital birth bag, plus other key things she kept prepped, and the hospital transport options she lined up. Most of these are great for gifting, too.

WHAT WE LEARNED THIS YEAR: Can you be healthy and still get gestational diabetes?
The answer is a resounding yes, but – as with so many aspects of pregnancy – it’s not always that simple.
